I feel very sad about the death of Mr. Finicum, who had stood out as an interesting and likable character. The incident should have been resolved without killing him.

But in these days when law enforcement seems to be trained to shoot people at the least provocation, he was definitely not acting in the way that a wise person would do to avoid this fate. He had already announced that he would not be taken alive. And then he ran from the first road block, almost hit the second, and exited his car very rapidly and kept moving around. If this was not intentional "suicide-by-cop", it was still behavior that was likely to turn out that way.

At least in the video Ms. Sharp doesn't say anything about the car being shot up.

There is a much longer audio recording that Victoria Sharp gave prior to the FBI video coming out. I will get a link for that.

There is additional testimony from the second eye witness to speak here, Additional Shawna Cox testimony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJch_UJBbLo&sns=fb
.
He jumped out of the vehicle and said with his hands up Just shoot me then. Because there were lasers all over them and the cops were shooting as soon as they hit the snow bank.

Over 100 shots into a vehicle with 3 innocent Americans.

Good read with details MSM has not bothered to dig up.

Perfectly explains Finicim’s reactions from him “running” from first “traffic stop” to him reaching for his left side while possibly being shot at.

We don’t know yet when the FIRST shots were fired.
